If you refer to a "trick" then you probably mean the Trojan Horse. According to literary legend, the city of Troy was under siege by Greek forces. The Greeks constructed a giant horse, and then presumably gave up the siege and sailed away. The Trojans pulled the horse into the city as a war trophy. The horse was filled with a small force of soldiers, who crept out at night and opened the gates of the city to the Greek army, which had returned under cover of darkness, and the city was taken.
The event is not generally considered historically factual.
PREVIOUS ANSWER: Im guessing you mean a military tactic. The Greeks introduced Western Europe to a strategy called "phalanx". It created a circle and all the soldiers would have their shields out making it hard for their enemy to kill them especially on open plains.
